    I have seen something similar on a PBS show about....I can't really remember, but it has to do with children and emotions, I think. Anyhow, the researchers would sit a kid down and put 2 gummy bears in a bowl, telling them that if he/she waited until the researcher came back, there would be 5 gummy bears. But, if they didn't want to wait, they could eat the 2 and ring a bell. And, yes, it was pretty much hilarious. Especially the girl who put the candy in her mouth and rang the bell before the researcher had even left the room. I love stuff like this.

    If it's Peeps instead of regular marshmallows, then I'd have had serious problems not nibbling off an eye or the tip of the beak as a kid...

    @wednesdayam: This is a battle that still plays out for me every Easter. I'm crossing my eyes and rocking back and forth like the kid in the video, trying not to just pull out the whole row of Peeps and stuff it in my mouth.

    As a kid-and even now, really-I didn't care for the taste or texture of marshmallows. I liked the shape of them, and how soft and velvety they felt in the hand. But eating them not so much. But Oh my God do they smell good.

    I love the kids who tried take a mini bite or scrape the marshmallow with their teeth to get a taste and then repositioned the marshmallow to look like they hadn't eaten it so they would get a second marhsmallow. Smart and cunning.

    Wow, something crazy happened in my mid-20s. I was all about saving and delayed gratification as a kid and teenager, but now... oh god. It's not pretty. It's like some switch flipped when I hit 25-26 and now I have money-handling issues. Gah.

    In defence of the girl at 3:00, maybe she didn't want a second marshmallow - she looked pretty content eating the one marshmallow and then clearing the table. Looks like a girl who knows what she wants.
    Well, that would be my excuse, anyway.

    I don't know about better adjusted. I would have been the kid who wouldn't dare even touch the marshmallow for fear I would be disqualified and that they would somehow know or were watching me.

    @elliebean: Watching it wondered why none of them licked the marshmallow which is what I would have done in order to get the flavor but have it still look the same.

    When we were kids, my parents would give us each a bar of chocolate for the week. My sister would scarf hers down in the first day, but I would patiently ration myself. By the third day, my sister would find my stash and there would be a chocolate frenzy, resulting in me sobbing and my sister bouncing off walls.

    Neither one of us learned anything from this, since we still eat chocolate this way. And anytime my sister comes to visit, I wind up having to buy more chocolate.

    @feather_spin: Same thing with me -- except it was my little brother -- he would come into my room at night to find my stash of the candy we'd gotten equal portions of because it "wasn't fair" that I still had some.

    @cellocurve: My little brother was the hoarder in my family- his nightstand drawer was filled with tootsie pops and dubble bubble that he took much greater pleasure in curating and looking at than eating. I was the one with the sweet tooth and I started so many fights with "But you're not even going to eat it!"

    I would have lasted about 2 seconds.
